FBC Boerne puts on a drive-thru storytelling of Jesus' life each winter called Celebrate Christmas. You're given a CD as you arrive and it narrates the scenes as you drive thru. Travis has participated in this production for 2 years now and has been portraying Jesus in the 'Carrying the Cross' scene. I think he does an outstanding job.

It's about time I catch up on blogging! We have been busy, busy, busy with several trips to Waco, watching Baylor dominate some BIG football games, celebrating my mom's 60th Birthday, Thanksgiving, a night out with my BFF and her hubs, cutting down our Christmas tree, and having our cousins visit and experience the Boerne Dickens on Main event! It makes me tired just writing that out.

Be warned: you're about to be overloaded with pictures!

Girls weekend in Waco with my cousin, Emily, and great friend, Rebecca.

Power Washing the back porch. Seriously, why didn't anybody ever tell me this was so fun? I LOVED it.

Homecoming 2012!

Mom's 60th birthday. Dad put on a great party and let Kourtny and I do all the decorating. We had 50 people come and celebrate my wonderful mom! We had a blast and everything turned out like we had planned.

For school we had to participate in a Mass Casualty Practice. We got transported to various hospitals around SA and were given a card (seen below) listing our symptoms we were to act out for hospital staff to properly diagnose

Thanksgiving with the Riley's. I tried a new recipe from Southern Living: Black Bottom Pumpkin Pie. It was amazing!

BFF time in Boerne:

Watching Baylor beat K State and Tech at the Novak House of Fun. We love going to their house and watching the games with them!

The most adventurous thing we tried were possum meat balls. Yes, you just read possum. I only tasted one bite and it was ok, but pretty chewy. I'd compare it to beef, but again it had a unique chewiness to it.

I still can't believe we tried it.

I neglected to get a pic of the tables full of delicious desserts. We nibbled on pie, cookies, brownies, and cobbler.

This wild game cookoff was well worth the $15 we paid. The place was packed with people, they had a raffle, live and silent auctions and a band.

After our stomachs couldn't hold any more food, we opted to head back to our house and have an outdoor fire and some red wine.

It was a great way to end a fun night with new friend.

Have you ever tried any wild game meets? If so, what are your thoughts?
